Anyone else notice increased petrol prices at the oil majors (Shell, BP, Esso, Texaco) this weekend?
Couldn't have anything to do with alleged dodgy supermarket petrol in the news this week?
Just a co-incidence, right?

No. its related. Market forces. All those tanks being drained need to be refueled more quickly now.
Plus Oil has crept up a little in the last few weeks.0 -
They may well be taking advantage of their market position. People will be looking for places to get petrol other than tesco or morrisons at the moment The news has suggested that oil companies will put the prices up due to the increased demand from stations being emptied and re-filled.0
